The moon forms a right triangle with the earth and the sun during one of its phases, as shown below:

a scientist measures the angle x and the distance y between the earth and the sun. using complete sentences, explain how the scientist can use only these two measurements to calculate the distance between the moon and the sun.

In the diagram, a building cast a 35-ft shadow and a flagpole casts an 8-ft shadow. if the the flagpole is 18 ft tall, how tall is the building? round the the nearest tenth.

Triangle xyz, with vertices x(-2, 0), y(-2, -1), and z(-5, -2), undergoes a transformation to form triangle x′y′z′, with vertices x′(4, -2), y′(4, -3), and z′(1, -4). the type of transformation that triangle xyz undergoes is a . triangle x′y′z′ then undergoes a transformation to form triangle x′y′z′, with vertices x″(4, 2), y″(4, 3), and z″(1, 4). the type of transformation that triangle x′y′z′ undergoes is a .
